ABOUT
Allegheny County Economic Development (ACED) coordinates development initiatives that can be as far-reaching and complex as revitalizing the former Carrie Furnace steel mill site or as personal as the home improvement dreams of a single resident. ACED consists of eight divisions: Operations, Business Development, Housing and Human Services, Planning, Municipal, Special Projects and Finance, Development, and Authorities. These divisions work together to support different aspects of business development, loan and grant administration, and comprehensive community planning. The department works closely with homeowners, nonprofits, developers, and municipalities, all of whom play a vital role in the sustainable economic development of the region. There are 63 full-time employees who work in the Allegheny County Economic Development Department. These individuals fulfill many roles: business development managers and specialists, contract coordinators, project managers, community outreach staff and administrative staff.
